What duras wants to talk about is probably that her Chinese amant taught her how to love, selfless love, this is her father who died early, sad mother, decadent brother, weak brother, what her family of origin could not teach her . She tried to act like a whore, taking the initiative, eating and drinking, asking for money, so that he even felt that he was self-deprecating and had no self-respect, so that he would have no psychological burden, so that it could not be called love, he You can rest assured to marry a wife and leave unrestrainedly. They don't have a future, so they can talk freely about the future. But in the end, she didn't ask her amant to pay her family's debts and buy the boat tickets, but he did it quietly, which just proved that they were sincere, she didn't really try to ask for money, and he really thought about her. It's just that neither of them wants to admit it, because admitting it won't change the powerless ending, it can only make it more painful and sad. She thought she wouldn't cry, she thought she concealed it so well that she lied to herself, she thought she didn't know how to express love, but it was love, she would go to water the flowers, she cried after hearing Chopin runny nose.

They both hope the relationship is paid to prove that they don't love each other. But on the contrary, they all made free contributions. She dedicated her young body and vitality to fill his emptiness, and he dedicated his physical strength to satisfy her desires and fill her sorrows.

The Lover quotes

  • Narrator: "Now and then I go back to the house in Sadek. To the horror of the house in Sadek. It's an unbearable place. It's close to death. A place of violence of pain of despair, of dishonour... But it's in this family's dryness in it's incredible harshness that I am the most deeply assured in myself. In the deepest of my essential certainties, all common history of ruin and shame, of love and hate is in my flesh."

  • Narrator: Dusk one evening on board ship, crossing the Indian Ocean under the luminous sky. Suddenly the sound of a Chopin waltz came bursting out from the main lounge. I had tried to play it for months without success. That's why I gave up the piano. There wasn't a breath of wind and the music pervaded the whole ship. I stood up as if to go and throw myself into the sea. Then I did weep because I had thought of my Chinese lover, and I was suddenly not sure that I hadn't been in love with him after all, with a love I hadn't been able to see because it had become lost in the tide of events, like water seeping through sand. Thanks to that music, spreading over the sea and filling the calmest night I have ever known, I could see my love for him for the first time.
